I love April. Not only is it my birth month, but it's also when new life is being breathed into nature. Every Spring I look forward to seeing the cherry blossom trees burst into fluffy pink and white flower clouds delicately suspended in the air from its branches. It's a short-lived season, which is why I take every opportunity I can to photograph cherry blossoms in all their glory - just check my Instagram feed for proof!

Double Denim

{ Coat: Ecote via Urban Oufitters // Chambray: H&M // Jeans: Old Navy // Booties: Zara // Scarf: American Apparel // Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs // Sunglasses: Dior // iPhone Case: HRH Collection (c/o) // Jewelry: bracelet from Mexico; BCBG ring }

I honestly never thought I'd wear denim on denim (or the Canadian tuxedo, as it's also known), because the look never appealed to me. But fashion can be surprising and over time it can change your outlook on certain styles. I inadvertently threw together my heart-print chambray (last seen here) with my dark denim skinny jeans and voila, a double denim outfit that was cute and effortless for a day of running errands. 

Are there any styles you never thought you'd wear and are now loving?

My love for this lace dress has been well documented on this blog (seen here, here and here) and I take any opportunity I can to wear it all year round. In addition to a camisole and two pairs of tights, I layered my heart-print chambray shirt underneath the dress to make it more suitable for the cold. I threw on my wool and cashmere blend coat on top (buttoned all the way up after outfit photos were taken, of course!) and I was good to go.

With the sudden drop in temperature, it became too cool for me to wear my maxi dress on its own. Putting a denim shirt over the dress and tying a cute knot in the front was the perfect layering solution.

Isn't this train car cool? I went inside it for the first time and it was a little eerie. Eleanor and I could only stand to photograph one interior shot before getting the urge to go back outside. As romantic as the notion of train travel is to me, the charm got a little lost in this railcar museum. I think I'll stick to air travel! Have a great weekend everyone!
